Turks and Caicos Islands: 5 Day Forecast

Ahoy from Mudjin Harbour in Middle Caicos, Boaby Rock Point on Grand Turk, and Grace Bay on Providenciales. Today at Mudjin Harbour the sun rises at 06:24 AM and sets at 07:23 PM, with the moon 8% lit. Skies stay mostly clear tonight across the islands, so stargazing should be fair to fine for many crews. Just after sunset, look low to the west for bright Venus if the horizon stays clear.

Sunday: Fair skies rule the waters with easterly winds around 17 MPH in Mudjin Harbour, 19 MPH at Boaby Rock Point, and 18 MPH at Grace Bay. Morning starts warm near 82 to 84 F, and with humidity around 76 to 80 it feels like 88 to 93 F. Seas run 4 to 5 feet at Mudjin and Grand Turk, but a nicer 3 to 4 feet at Grace Bay after sunrise. Through midday and afternoon, temperatures climb to 84 to 86 F, and with the humidity it feels like 92 to 98 F in Mudjin, 93 to 95 F in Grand Turk, and 91 to 94 F in Grace Bay. Cloud cover stays very low overall, with just a few passing clouds later in the day. Any rain is only a stray light sprinkle, hardly enough to bother beachgoers, anglers, or outdoor diners. Around dinner time, conditions stay bright and breezy with 84 to 85 F, fair skies, and steady easterlies. The standout difference today is Grace Bay, where waves are a touch smaller than the other two spots and the beach and nearshore boating look the friendliest.

Monday: Another fine boating day with plenty of sun and steady easterly trades. Early hours hold near 83 to 84 F at all three locations, with humidity around 80 to 84 so it feels like 92 to 94 F. By late morning into afternoon, temperatures rise to 84 to 87 F, and with that sticky air it feels like 95 to 103 F, hottest at Mudjin Harbour. Seas run mostly 4 feet at Mudjin, 5 feet much of the day at Boaby Rock Point, and 3 to 4 feet at Grace Bay. Cloud cover stays low, especially Grand Turk and Grace Bay, and rain chances stay so tiny that most crews will never notice more than a passing sprinkle. Dinner hour looks quite good for restaurants and sunset sails, with warm air near 84 to 86 F, dry skies, and easterly winds around 15 to 18 MPH. The main difference tomorrow is Boaby Rock Point, where the breeze and waves stay a bit stronger than the country average, while Grace Bay remains the smoothest pick.
